Delhi, India
jitne hain kushtagan-e-ishq un ke azal se hain mile
wamandgan-e-rah to manzil pe ja paDe
ab to zara sa ganw bhi beTi na de use
jis kaam ko jahan mein tu aaya tha ai nazir
na itna zulm kar ai chandni bahr-e-KHuda chhup ja
marta hai jo mahbub ki Thokar pe nazir aah
jo KHushamad kare KHalq us se sada raazi hai
ishq ka dur kare dil se jo dhaDka tawiz
wo mai-kade mein halawat hai rind-e-mai-kash ko
dosto kya kya diwali mein nashat-o-aish hai
ashkon ke tasalsul ne chhupaya tan-e-uryan
likhen hum aish ki taKHti ko kis tarah ai jaan
kal nazir usne jo puchha ba-zaban-e-punjab
hum haal to kah sakte hain apna pa kahen kya
kahin baiThne de dil ab mujhe jo hawas Tuk main baja karun
